Overview
WHO began reporting estimates of the prevalence of tobacco smoking for all countries in the first report on the global tobacco epidemic, in 2008. The model has improved over the years, as have the quantity and quality of national data from countries. The methods used to derive the estimates in this report are described below. WHO published the first edition of this report in 2015. This report is the 2nd in the series, using the same methods with a more recent data set.
